50. Chapter 50

When I picked up the little tiger, I found that there was a wooden box in the back. Mo Chaoyun put down the little tiger, opened the box, and quietly placed a Xun on the soft yellow velvet satin in the center. The body is brown and black, and it looks very old, looking old and clumsy. Mo Chaoyun picked it up, held it in his hand, and knocked it gently, listening to the sound was very thin and light, but he felt that it had a lot of weight in his hand. The patterns on the Xun surface are not elaborately carved flashy, but they contain a kind of connotation of a heavy period of time.

Mo Chaoyun remembered Huo Xiyun's evaluation of Xun: The five holes are exquisite, simple and cute. She couldn't help but smile knowingly, he was really right.

Just when Mo Chaoyun couldn't put it down on this Xun, Yun Gu tidied up the inner room and came back, and saw the Xun in her hand at a glance, "Where did you get it?" โ€

"It's on the bookshelf, right behind the tiger."

Yun Gu sighed, "I looked for it for a long time, and I thought it was gone, but it turned out to be hidden under my nose." She carefully took the Xun from Mo Chaoyun's hand, put it back in the wooden box, and pushed it back into its original position after dropping the buckle.

"These are all made by Miss Qianye herself in the past, she likes to knead mud very much, these are all the finished products that she left over from not doing well until she finally did a good job, and there was no damage. But you're really destined, her favorite of these things is this Xun and this little tiger. โ€

Mo Chaoyun worshipped: "This Xun was made by Qianye? She's really good at it, this Xun is very good! โ€

Yun Gu was surprised: "Xiao Mo, do you also understand Xun?" Can you blow? โ€

Mo Chaoyun said embarrassedly: "I don't dare to say that I understand, it's my brother who understands, he likes Xun, and he often plays tunes for me, I have also learned, I can play some, but I don't play very well." โ€

Yun Gu was suddenly very excited, "Xiao Mo, play a song for me...... I've heard it a lot, but no one has blown it for a long time. โ€

"Okay, if Aunt Yun doesn't dislike me, I'll blow a paragraph." Mo Chaoyun opened the wooden box again and took out the Xun, "Then I'll use this Xun made by Qianye." โ€

Yun Gu nodded, "Okay, but this Xun was not made by Miss Qianye, but by Lord Chiba, and it was a gift for Miss Qianye on her birthday." After Aunt Yun finished speaking, she pointed to the proud little tiger again, "This is the gift that Miss Qianye gave back to Lord Chiba, but then Miss Chiba was gone, and Lord Chiba put it back again." โ€

Mo Chaoyun held the Xun in his hand and thought blankly, this turned out to be made by Chiba. can make Xun so perfect, I think he is also a person who can play Xun.

She habitually touched the hole before blowing on her lips. She played a famous ballad called "Spring Return". This was originally a song full of hope and cheerfulness, but after Mo Chaoyun thought about the person who had taught her to play this tune, she began to feel sad again, so the song inevitably took on a melancholy and sad meaning.

After blowing a tune, I saw Aunt Yun frowning slightly and sighing, "Xiao Mo, are you tired?" I told them to boil water, and you should rest early after washing. โ€

Mo Chaoyun really wanted to stay by himself for a while at the moment, so he nodded, "There is Aunt Lao Yun." โ€

After Aunt Yun left, Mo Chaoyun walked to the door alone, holding Xun, and sat by the doorrail in a daze.

Counting the days, today should be the birthday of the king of the county. Usually he spends his birthday with her, I wonder if he will think of her again now? Involuntarily, she picked up Xun again, and blew it quietly, this time the song was really sad and heavy, the music was accompanied by the heart, and even she herself burst into tears unconsciously in the end.

After realizing that he smelled the fragrance of roasted sweet potatoes behind him, Mo Chaoyun stopped blowing and looked back in surprise, but saw Chiba in white fluttering, standing three steps behind him, holding a fragrant roasted sweet potato in his hand, I don't know how long.

Mo Chaoyun's eyes widened in surprise with tears on his face, "How did you get in?" If you don't go through the door, you'll be able to penetrate the wall! โ€

Chiba didn't speak, just walked up to her, squatted down, stuffed the roasted sweet potato into her, and then replaced the Xun in her hand.

"You just blew "The Ballad of Pingsheng"?" Chiba glanced at her tear-stained face, "Moved yourself to tears?" โ€

Mo Chaoyun wolf bรจi freed up a hand and quickly wiped her face, but she wiped it in a hurry, bringing the black ash on the roasted sweet potato skin to her face, and with tears like this, her face instantly turned into a big cat.

Chiba frowned, padded the sleeve of her right hand, and then lifted Mo Chaoyun's bewildered face, and patiently wiped away the dirty part of her little by little.

His fingers were a little cold at first, but after a long time, they gradually warmed up, and in the end they were like sparks. Mo Chaoyun didn't dare to look at his eyes at all, but the heat burning on his cheeks couldn't deceive people. The heat was rising on his fingertips, and she was so embarrassed that she turned her head sideways in embarrassment, dodging his fingers.

Mo Chaoyun awkwardly looked for a topic and said, "You haven't said how you got in?" I don't think it really penetrates the wall. โ€

Chiba pointed to the eye-catching entire row of bookshelves, "The pottery on the fourth grid on the far left of the bookshelf, turn it three times to the left, you can activate the secret door embedded in the wall, this secret door leads directly to my bedroom, from me to you, it is only half a cup of tea, but the outer road that Yun Gu took you on, there are some detours, and the time is much longer." โ€

It turns out that he and that Qianye still have such a secret secret passage! The blush instantly froze into condensation, and Mo Chaoyun snorted heavily, "Your bedroom is connected to her bedroom?" Then why don't you just live together, wouldn't it be easier than you running around like this! โ€

Chiba didn't speak, just lifted the hem of her snow-white shirt and sat side by side with Mo Chaoyun on the doorrail, "At that time, Qianye was still very young, and she was very afraid of the dark, especially in the night when the wind and snow were combined. Once she woke up in her sleep, and it was so snowy that night that she rushed to me barefoot without shoes. Later, she became ill with frostbite, had a high fever that lasted for a long time, and her mouth was full of nonsense. After that, I made this secret passage to close the distance between us so that she could come to me. Later, when she got older, this secret passage was rarely used. Then she died, and I never used it again. It's been ten years, and if you hadn't come, maybe this secret passage would have been abandoned forever. โ€

Maybe in Chiba's opinion, this is already an explanation, but Mo Chaoyun obviously doesn't think so, "Men and women don't kiss, these strange rules of your demon cave, I can't understand it anyway!" She said as she began to grunt at the skin of the roasted sweet potato.

It was rare for Chiba not to taunt her, and he said patiently: "I know that you have lived a big life in the Nineteenth Academy, and maybe you used to be too, so I am afraid it will be difficult for you to adapt to the vegetarian diet at first glance." โ€

He poked the sweet potato in her hand, "I know you didn't eat much just now, you must be hungry now." Don't look at the roasted sweet potatoes now look ordinary, the skin is very fragrant, are you sure you don't want to eat it? โ€

Mo Chaoyun looked at his slender fingers puffing sweet potatoes, the joints were fine, the flesh and bone were even, extremely good-looking, and with the foil of this hand, the sweet potatoes also became extremely tempting. She secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally couldn't help but peel off the sweet potato skin, the heat wrapped in the inner flesh slowly rose, she took a bite while it was hot, and her mouth was warm and sweet.

Mo Chaoyun held the sweet potato in his mouth, and said vaguely: "You baked the sweet potato?" โ€

Seeing him nod, she asked again, "Specially baked for me?" โ€

Seeing him nod again, she questioned, "So good?" โ€

"I'm afraid that you'll be hungry for a long time, so I deliberately walked through the secret passage. This secret passage has been deserted for a long time, and it smells musty. โ€

"Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief." She was skeptical of his kindness.

Chiba laughed, "What do you have that is worthy of my rape and worthy of my theft?" โ€

After he finished speaking, he no longer made a sound, but picked up the Xun that Mo Chaoyun had played before, and played the same song "Pingsheng Ballad". The same tune, blown by Chiba, has a completely different charm.

Mo Chaoyun gradually became fascinated by what he heard, and he didn't even notice that half of the sweet potato had fallen to the ground. At the end of the song, both of them did not speak for a long time.

Mo Chaoyun sighed after coming back to his senses, "I've only heard two people play this piece to such a forgetful state, one is you, and the other is ......."

She stopped here, but Chiba said, "The other one is Huo Xiyun." After a pause, he added, "Did you just cry because you remembered him?" โ€

Mo Chaoyun looked at the remaining half of the sweet potato in his hand and said regretfully: "Actually, today is my birthday." โ€

Chiba frowned slightly, "Do you remember your birthday?" โ€

Mo Chaoyun rolled her eyes, "Who wouldn't know their birthday......" Before she finished speaking, she paused again, and smiled bitterly for a long time, "Yes, I really don't know, because I was picked up by the county king." When he picked me up, I was still a swaddling baby, waiting for milk, and the prince saw that I was pitiful, and took me in. I didn't have a birthday, so the king of the county said that his birthday would be my birthday in the future, so I also had a birthday. โ€

Chiba looked at her and bowed her head silently, "You miss him so much, I think he must be very good to you." โ€

"Yes, that's good." Mo Chaoyun nodded, "He taught me to read and write, taught me to practice archery, taught me to ride a horse and blow the Xun, he gave me my birth date and name, he picked me up from the heavy snow, he gave me a home, he taught me from a child who didn't know anything to what I am now, but ......"

Tears that had not dried up in her eyes welled up again, and she took a deep snort before she tried to say, "But we will never see each other again." โ€
